Kent Float parts??

I have a kent float valve here that doesn't have the two white plastic pieces that screw onto the back of the valve. The large one screws onto the black threads. The smaller one screws onto the large one and the ro line runs through it into the float.

I'm missing those two parts and called Kent today to ask what they were and they didn't know the sizes of them. They told me I'd have to buy those pieces from an online vendor. I don't know what they are to find them so if anyone has any ideas I could really use those parts.

IIRC they just use a plastic compression fitting. I'll check mine tonight and get back to you.

That looks like the right one. $.99 at premium aquatics.

Re: Kent Float parts??

I hate ordering a part that cheap but I have no other choice. Lowes and HD don't carry them here.

Re: Kent Float parts??

try Samons if you have those or Ace I've gotten them at all these places. Also check your RO box. Mine actually had a similar adapter with a shut off that would work just fine also.
